Several challenges face those responsible for calibrating pressure sensors for critical air environments, including pharmaceutical plants. Pressurization equipment requires highly accurate calibrations to certify that pressure sensors are working correctly.

Fourier-Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Fourier-Transform Near-Infrared (FT-NIR) are two technologies that are being increasingly used in the chemical processing industry. While these two technologies are similar, there are important differences between them that make each better suited for particular applications.

There is renewed emphasis on safe quality food production in the industry, and ozone-based technologies have become part of the solution for various production issues, particularly after the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) designation in 1997.

While acknowledging its failings and striving for improvements, the chemical processing industry should be proud of its record  virtually from the beginning  of sound stewardship in the management of toxics.

Exciting? Dangerous? Experts wrestle with this unparalleled enigma Nanotechnology: Truth & Consequences The reason nanomaterials are exciting is the reason they are dangerous. They offer hope to the hopeless but could destroy as well as create.

How to choose the right sealing compound ‘Seal materials must be chemically resistant to the product processed, CIP media used, and the harsh SIP sterilization process using superheated steam up to 140°C.’‘Even materials that may appear similar react differently in chemical media.’ By Dr.

How new technological breakthroughs are affecting explosion protection Before the HRD Suppressor… The pressurized HRD suppressors of today are a far cry from the first suppressors used in explosion protection.

Not all infrared monitors are created equal ‘Photoacoustic infrared technology enables gases to be detected at extremely low levels due to its inherent stability and reduced crosssensitivity.’‘There is no zero point involvedproviding more accurate and reliable readings.
